Answer 1

Problem Analysis

To solve this problem, we need to determine the amount of water brought by the father and the son separately. We are given that the father brought 7 buckets of water and the son brought 5 buckets of water. Additionally, we know that the father brought 16 liters more water than the son.

Solution

Let's assume that the son brought x liters of water. Since the father brought 16 liters more than the son, the father brought x + 16 liters of water.

To find the value of x, we can set up an equation based on the information given. The total amount of water brought by the father and the son is the sum of their individual amounts:

x + (x + 16) = 7 + 5

Simplifying the equation:

2x + 16 = 12

Subtracting 16 from both sides:

2x = 12 - 16

2x = -4

Dividing both sides by 2:

x = -2

Since we cannot have a negative amount of water, it seems that there is an error in the problem statement or the given information. Please double-check the problem statement and the values provided.
